Charlie Cox to star in 'The Ordained'

A “Boardwalk Empire” star is joining a CBS family drama.

Charlie Cox will play Tom in “The Ordained.” Tom is the son in a Kennedy- ish family leaving the priest hood to become a lawyer to keep his politician sister, the New York City mayor, from being assassinated.

Cox played Nucky’s right- hand man and Margaret’s love interest Owen on the popular HBO drama.

Tom is more than a little like John F. Kennedy Jr. He reportedly joined the priesthood partly to spite his authoritarian father.
